Hi,
I am interested in getting a 3000 and want to run it from a laptop (for
portability reasons). I do not currently have a laptop which would be
suitable and I have never owned one with FireWire capability as far as I know.
Is it possible to use a laptop with any of the Flex Radios, es

As I have posted privately to Ray, I have recently purchased a new HP
ProBook 4525s that seems to do the job without issues. It does have an
express card slot that handles a SIIG plug-in FireWire card. I use it with
my F3K and the latest PSDR without issue on both SSB and dig

that will run at 533Mhz.

I am using a Dell Inspiron 600m laptop with my SDR-1000.
I bought it because it has both parallel and serial ports.
It seems to work fine.

Lyle,
Did you find a PCMCIA or Cardbus parallel port card that worked with
the sdr1k?
I've had too much trouble keeping rf out of the FlexRadio USB adaptor.

I have run the SDR on a T42 (same as the R51) with no serious
